Owner
Penny Faulkner, 26, from Edinburgh, said: 'You can notice a real
difference in Amber’s shape – she no longer waddles when she walks.'

In second place was a long-haired black-and-white cat called Socrates from South Shields.

The
biggest cat the charity had ever seen, Socrates couldn’t stop scoffing
cheese and onion crisps – and at 10.1kg weighed twice as much as he
should have. He has since lost 1.5kg.

His owner Bill Duncan, 52,
who put his cat on a strict diet to achieve the weight loss, said:
'I’ve learned that you can make a real change to your pet's health if
you want to. It has been very worthwhile.'
